Financial Fitness Tournament

The Financial Fitness Tournament is an annual program hosted by the Southeastern Credit Union Foundation. Competitions in March and April determine regional champions; each regional champion then competes online to achieve an overall Financial Fitness score. In June, the top team from each state and two additional highest scoring teams move on to compete for the League Championship at the Southeast Credit Union Conference & Expo live in Orlando.

We are proud that two Alabama ONE – sponsored students place in the 2020 tournament. Will Hinds placed 1st with a $1,000 prize and Vaneeza Rupani placed 2nd with a $500 prize. More than 50 students across Alabama, Florida, and Georgia competed in 2020.
